NECKTIE PILLOW (Pillow made of neckties)









I have this pillow to give to my son, Larry, for Christmas. I have made many things for the girls and nothing with my CQ work on it for him. So I thought it would be proper to make something masculine for him and thus this pillow. I notice he likes Blue, so blue it is. I used parts of about 6 ties for it. The border is made of the points of the ties lapped over each other, with a large one in the middle of all 4 sides.

Very classy looking! I think this is the best use of ties I have seen so far - love the edging cause it looks like prairie points!
Hugs, Kerry

I love it! I'm putting together a post about sewing with neckties (should be up this weekend) and I'll link this.

Hi Carol! I would love to make one of these for my Grandmother out of my deseased Grandfather's ties. I was wondering if you had instructions for these? Thanks!
